# Source literature boundary memo

## Research question

Across retrieved source-level receipts for supply_chain_resilience_performance, which metrics, settings, or contrasts carry directional support versus caveat evidence, and what matched design remains untested?

## Selection criteria

The source-literature selector kept supply_chain_resilience_performance because the candidate bundle met the public source rule: 5 citable papers, 5 distinct fact-backed source identities, topic-overlapping source facts, and enough shared scope to compare metric/context disagreement. It excludes duplicate reports, metadata-only title matches, off-topic papers, and sources without fact-level extraction before treating the bundle as a coherent scoping front rather than proof of a policy or market conclusion.

## Boundary map

  - Finding: Findings First, the study revealed that SCR has a significant positive effect on SCP
  - Population/setting: manufacturing firms

  - Endpoint/metric: scp

## Source synthesis

Bounded signal: supply chain resilience performance has directional support for scp, while firm performance is null or non-convergent across firm-level, chain-level, and business-outcome. That supports a narrow scoping contrast, not support for the topic as a whole.

Evidence weight: one effect-bearing receipt supports scp in manufacturing firms; one caveat receipt reports firm performance in firms as null or non-convergent; 2 other receipt(s) provide antecedent or modeling context only. This is not an effect synthesis or a pooled comparison. Falsifier/update: the directional-association scp receipt would weaken if a matched industry/setting, comparator/reference, and metric replication reports a weaker or opposite association.

Integrated reading: the directional and caveat receipts are not matched on setting, design, and metric, so the bundle supports only a narrow scope contrast between the named outcomes.


## Evidence matrix

Matrix guard: effect-bearing rows below are metric-specific source facts, not a pooled comparison; context-only rows are excluded from effect support.

### Context-only receipts

Audit note: effect-bearing rows stay metric-specific; antecedent/support and descriptive/modeling rows are excluded from effect support and no rows are pooled.

## Evidence role definitions

- directional association: supply_chain_resilience_performance is the policy, exposure, method, or practice linked to the named metric; the label is not an effect-size estimate or efficacy verdict.
- antecedent/support: the receipt explains inputs, enablers, or context for the topic rather than a clean topic-to-outcome effect.
- descriptive/modeling: the receipt reports modelling or prediction rather than a policy-effect estimate.
- metric-scope caveat: the receipt constrains the directional scope to the named metric rather than the broader outcome set.
- non-directional caveat: the extracted finding is not directionally interpretable for the named metric.

Evidence role summary: direction-bearing receipts: 1; metric-scope caveat receipts: 1; context/antecedent/model receipts: 2 excluded from effect support.

Specific moderators in this bundle are outcome type (business outcome; firm performance; scp; supply chain performance; supply chain resilience and supply chain), population/indication (firms), study design/evidence type (primary).

## Context separation

Population/settings are separated as receipt context: automotive firms, chemical industrial companies, firms, and manufacturing firms. The selected receipts group because each carries a fact-level extraction for supply_chain_resilience_performance; they separate by context (other source context) and metric, so they are not interchangeable evidence for one pooled claim.

## Boundary limits

Source-literature boundary for supply_chain_resilience_performance: the listed sources define one bounded, context-dependent signal across separate source contexts. This memo does not claim causality, policy prescription, a pooled elasticity estimate, or a market-generalized effect across the sources.
 Material limitations: small 5-source bundle; no pooled estimate is possible; method/model receipts without direct effect estimates are context only; outcomes are not harmonized across studies.
 The signal is purely descriptive of source-level direction and scope; it cannot support a causal, policy-prescriptive, or pooled elasticity inference, and pooling across these designs would be inappropriate.
 Routing domain `business_research` is publication-lane metadata only; the source scope here is defined by the selected supply_chain_resilience_performance receipts.

## Next gaps

Resolve the metric-scope caveat by retesting scp and firm performance inside one matched industry, comparator, and metric frame before generalizing the directional receipts.
A stronger memo needs one matched design: one setting, one policy/exposure, one comparator/reference group, and one named metric.
If supply_chain_resilience_performance is promoted beyond a scoping note, the next run should select sources sharing one context family rather than spanning other source context.
